《The Frozen Logger》歌词

[00:00:00] The Frozen Logger (1954) - Odetta (欧蒂塔)

[00:00:03] As I sat down one evening

[00:00:07] Was in a small café

[00:00:11] A forty year old waitress to me

[00:00:14] These words did say

[00:00:19] I see you that you are a logger

[00:00:23] And not just a common bum

[00:00:27] 'Cause nobody but a logger

[00:00:30] Stirs his coffee with his thumb

[00:00:36] My lover he was a logger

[00:00:40] There's none like him today

[00:00:44] Well if you'd pour whiskey on it

[00:00:47] Well he'd eat a bale of hay

[00:00:53] He never sharing his whiskey

[00:00:57] To shave his horny hide

[00:01:00] He'd just drive them in with a hammer

[00:01:04] Then he'd bite them off inside

[00:01:09] My lover he came to see me

[00:01:14] Was on a freezing day

[00:01:17] He held me in a fond embrace

[00:01:21] That broke three vertebraes

[00:01:26] Well he kissed me when we parted

[00:01:30] So hard that he broke my jaw

[00:01:34] And I could not speak to tell him

[00:01:38] He forgot his mackinaw

[00:01:43] I saw my lover leaving

[00:01:47] Sauntering through the snow

[00:01:51] Well going grimly homeward

[00:01:55] At forty eight below

[00:02:00] Wll the weather tried to freeze him

[00:02:04] It tried its level best

[00:02:07] At a hundred degrees below zero

[00:02:11] He buttoned up his vest

[00:02:17] It froze clean through to China

[00:02:21] And it froze to the stars above

[00:02:24] And at a thousand degrees below zero

[00:02:28] It froze my logger love

[00:02:34] And so I lost my lover

[00:02:38] And to this café I come

[00:02:41] And here I wait till someone

[00:02:45] Stirs his coffee with his thumb
